Eliminated Isles display ‘Pride’ in Ottawa
Ladd’s game-winner lifts New York to 4-3 victory over Senators
Pride still matters to the New York Islanders despite their recent elimination from playoff contention.
Andrew Ladd scored what proved to be the game-winning goal with just over two minutes remaining in regulation Tuesday night as the Islanders pulled out a 4-3 victory over the Ottawa Senators in front of 15,284 fans at the Canadian Tire Center.
Anders Lee, Anthony Beauvillier and Brock Nelson also had goals for New York, which was mathematically knocked out of the postseason chase Monday night at Barclays Center against the Florida Panthers.
